Rock N Roll Half Marathon

So the day after my little bothers wedding, I ran in the Rock n' Roll Series, St. Louis Half-Marathon (13.1-miles).  My first ever half-marathon, was the Rock n' Roll Series Nashville (TN) Half-Marathon (April 2012).  They may be one of my favorite series to run.  The staff, volunteers, medical tents, the bands along the run make it an enjoyable run.

Packet pick-up on Friday morning in St. Louis.

Its an early (Sunday) morning (4:30am)

Ready....set.....GOOOO 

We ran around Busch Stadium, home to the ever famous St. Louis Cardinals

 Its always amazing to see our service members (firefighters, police officers, military personnel) participate in these runs.  Thank you for all that you do!

To my wonderful fiancé, who supports me and my 1/2 crazy hobby.  Whether it be driving me to the race at all hours of the early morning, or the drive back following, cheering me along the race, and sending me motivational text messages during

All Done

Completed: 2 hrs, 54 mins

Brian went and found a little famous breakfast place around the corner from the race.  Not a complete shocker, but made friends prior to enjoying breakfast at Roosters.

A local food/farmer restaurant.  A great little breakfast spot.  Roosters has been voted “BEST BREAKFAST IN MISSOURI.'  We would highly recommend it.
